Jujutsu Kaisen, one of the most popular new anime of the year, is getting a mobile RPG game. The announcement came via Issue 28 of Weekly Shonen Jump and Twitter. The role-playing game, titled Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade, is developed by Sumzap. The game is free-to-play, on Android and IOS, but comes with optional in app purchases.
So far, we don’t know much about the Jujutsu Kaisen Mobile RPG. There hasn’t been a stated release window or great detail on full features. However, we do know that the series’ main characters like Yuji Itadori, Megumi Fushiguro, Nobara Kugisaki, Kento Nanami, and Satoru Gojo will all appear in the game. It’s more than likely a few others will appear as well.

The series, based on the manga of the same name from Gege Akutami, debuted as an anime in September 2020. It will also have a prequel movie to premiere in Winter 2022.
Jujutsu Kaisen’s story follows high school student Yuji Itadori as he finds himself tied up in a supernatural world of monsters called “Curses.” One of the most powerful and famous curses possesses Yuji, who ends up training at the Tokyo Metropolitan Magic Technical College to control his power and become a Jujutsu Sorcerer.
Phantom Parade will have its own official site soon. The web site will be live with the Jujutsu Kaisen Mobile RPG game’s official announcement on Sunday June 13 ET / Monday June 14 JST.
